Chapter 769 - Davis Promises
Chapter 769 - Davi"s Promises
"Thank you." Davi also sent his thanks to Alex and even slightly bowed his head to show his sincerity. It was hard for a person of high status to bow their head, let alone the Family Head of Ancient Blue Family.
"Hmm… Is it really his feeling, or is it because of the letter? Never mind. At least I know that he won"t attack me for the time being." Alex thought and nodded his head. "I was just doing my part."
Davi nodded and looked at his children. "How do you feel now?"
"We are fine, Father. I might be able to fight 4-Star Martial Saint if I push my limit, but if I manage to control this energy, I believe I can fight them on equal ground. The same applies to Rena since our talent isn"t that much different." Rio answered with a gentle smile before clasping his hand toward Alex again.
"That"s great." Davi patted their shoulders and hugged them for a few seconds before returning to Alex. "I am sorry for this display… But it seems we have an unfinished business… May I ask you to leave this room first together with me so we can talk?"
Alex didn"t answer him immediately. Instead, he took out a scroll from his s.p.a.ce Ring and threw it toward the Array Masters. "This is the technique I used earlier. It is a bit hard, but since you have watched how I performed it, you should be able to understand this technique faster."
Davi was slightly confused because there wasn"t a single mention of Alex giving the technique in the letter. He only knew that Alex would teach them how to do it. Seeing this much favor from Alex, another idea appeared in his mind.
"Let"s go." Alex stretched his hand forward, asking him to lead the way.
Davi and Alex then left the room, wanting to have a serious talk outside.
Alex created his Sound Insulation Array and halted his step, taking out a few Array Plates from his s.p.a.ce Ring. "These are the backup arrays. I think my part has finished after giving these to you."
"Yes. However, I would like to extend my thanks to you after this." Davi smiled. "I feel like the condition of me being part of your play in this war is not equal to the one you gave us. Hence, I would like to add another condition from our side.
"I want to promise you that none of the elders, including me, will have their energy combined before you leave this world as a G.o.d Rank Expert."
"Ho?!" Alex narrowed his eyes, never expecting Davi to give such a promise. "I don"t recall you are a person like this…"
"No, no. I have calculated everything. Looking at your strength and cultivation speed, I am confident that you will become a G.o.d Rank Expert within a decade. So, it"s not that long for us. At the same time, we can experiment with the technique and master it to perfection by testing it with lower level disciples.
"This fusion can elevate our status even higher since we will be able to utilize our latent talent. And I know you are still wary against us, especially since we are a threat to your plan. That"s why no elders will undergo something like this for the time being. It"s our commitment.
"And… This is my internal problem, but I guess it"s necessary to tell you. We are trying to move against the people who want to ruin our family with their corruption. Hence, we want to take care of our internal problem first before looking upon the broader world.
"I think ten years will be the perfect time for my Ancient Blue Family. And if you need any help from my family… As long as it doesn"t require a huge number of human resources, we will gladly help you." Davi paused for a moment before revealing his biggest factor.
"As you might already know, I am a person who is looking at benefits before everything else. And I simply see siding with your side for the time being won"t bring my family a disaster. I also know the fact that you won"t attack a neutral influence without apparent reason… In other words, I simply take away that reason from you."
Alex looked up and sighed. "Fair enough. But since you are this sincere, you don"t mind if I say my request now, right?"
"Certainly."
"You know I have a disciple and some friends, right?"
"I promise you as the former family head. I will also have Rio to swear a Heavenly Oath for that. We won"t attack your friends and disciple."
Alex looked at him for a few seconds before nodding. "Alright. Since that is the case, I won"t be your enemy. But you need to remember, my network is vast, so you better watch out your movement."
"Of course." Davi ignored this threat because he would have no time to deal with this threat due to the complexity of his matter.
"Now that I think about it, you can even use the whole act as a part of the alliance to recognize the betrayer in your family. Two years should be enough for the Array Masters to get a good grasp of the array, if not mastering it." Alex gave a piece of advice.
"!!!" Davi gasped, never expecting Alex could think something like that in a brief moment. "That"s right. Those who are trying to usurp and not happy with the family tradition will surely show their true color if we retreat without any apparent reason.
"And I can pacify the family with the news after finis.h.i.+ng these traitors…" Davi took a deep breath and blinked his eyes a few times. He admitted defeat to Alex. "Now I can see why you are cla.s.sified as a disaster that will destroy our family if we make a wrong choice… I understand. I will act my part, and thank you very much."
Alex waved his hand, telling him that he didn"t do much. He entered the room and asked Jeanne. "We are going back to the courtyard."
Davi heard this and improvised. "Five elders, I will leave Rio and Rena to you. I will guide our esteemed guests to their courtyard, so they can have a good rest."
All of the people inside the room clasped their hands, giving their thanks to Alex. However, the latter already walked away with Jeanne and Davi.
"Master… What are we going to do now? You have officially become a 3-Star Martial Saint, and I think you are not far from 4-Star. Are you going straight to 5-Star this time?" Jeanne asked as soon as they entered the room.
"No. I am mastering my Spirit Crown first. Maybe one of you can share your element with me and increase my strength even further… But we will see whether this technique suits me or not. After all, the past me could do something like this because he had no element. I don"t want to ruin my s.p.a.ce and Pure Fire just for the sake of this."
"I understand. This Jeanne will surely accompany Master if you want to test it." Jeanne smiled. "I don"t want to brag, but… Only Jean, Mistress Alicia and Firia can be compared to me in terms of elements. Mistress Anna and Anya are unique, so they can"t really be compared. I believe it"s good to borrow a strong element because it will push you to the limit, allowing you to master it faster."
"We will talk about it after we return to the base. Seeing my strength catching up with all of you, do you think you can slack off?" Alex smirked.
What he said was true. Alex only 1-Star away from them, and the group would feel useless if they let Alex catch up just like that. However, Sherry also remembered a few things. "Don"t worry. We have enough Gacha Tickets to do another level up, and if we calculate by the EXPs coming from the war later… I think we have no problem in reaching 6-Star if not 7-Star Martial Saint. And if you add the Gacha Tickets coming from that war… Leoz might be able to reach 10-Star if you focus on him."
"No. By that time, Leoz will probably stay in 8-Star or 9-Star. I want all of you to reach the goal at the same time, so I will refrain myself from giving Leoz EXP Cards." Alex shook his head.
"Fair enough. I will just follow Master"s commands." Jeanne smiled and raised her two fingers, making a peace sign.
??Well, I hope I can reach 5-Star if not 6-Star after the war. That way, I would only need four years to reach 10-Star and undergo my tribulation. Wait, I can do it faster because I don"t need to train any Divine Technique, Divine Pill, or Divine Array. I simply can"t train them due to the lack of Divine Energy. Even my Simulation Room can"t handle something like this." Alex shook his head and sighed.
"You can practice it elsewhere. In fact, Eulja is a better place for you to practice."
"We will see." Alex shrugged. "Anyway, it"s time for us to leave."
Jeanne nodded. "I don"t have anything to bring, so I can go anytime."
Alex then created a Teleportation Array and sent them toward their base.
An hour later.
Alex sat on the chair, facing Anya with a calm expression. "That"s how it is."
He just finished re-summoning Anya, so she could see his memory as to not trouble himself from explaining everything to her.
"I get the gist of your plan. Though I want to warn you about the Spirit Crown."
"Is there any problem with the crown?"
"At the moment? No. In the future? Yes."
"Hmm?" Alex furrowed his eyebrows, trying to understand her meaning.
"You should know that most G.o.d Rank Experts recognized that crown, right?"
"Ah! I see." Alex instantly realized her concern.
"Yes. Those who had seen the outside worlds in the past would recognize you with a single glance. This also applied to those who are not in this world. Spirit G.o.d is a well-known name even now, so you might want to hide it in the future until you are strong enough. In fact, your two elements, skills, and connection with us already bring too much attention from the worlds around us. Luckily, none of them realize your ident.i.ty yet.
"If they know you are here, people will swarm you like crazy, from your friends, neutral people, or even your enemies. Eulja might be strong, but if they need to defeat many worlds at once, we will be defeated.
"Hence, I believe you should think about changing your name, controlling your strength and hiding your Spirit Crown," Anya said with a pained look. She didn"t want to do this if they had an option. Due to the lack of presence of the Spirit G.o.d for a long time, she simply had no clue what the others were thinking about Alex. Hence, she needed to ask Alex all of this until he got strong enough.
Alex thought for a moment and smiled. "I understand your concern. Haven"t I done it all this time? I might probably need another name other than Redna Xela… My reverse name. As for my strength, I will use my fire first so people will think about the former Fire G.o.d, or I can reveal my s.p.a.ce Element to remind them about the Dungeon G.o.d.
"As for the Spirit Crown… It"s my trump card. I am not using it unless necessary. Besides, you, spirits, will be more recognizable. Of course, they must still think I am dead. And these five thousand years means their surveillance will be severely lacking.
"Hence, I think we can move together for a few years… Albeit not in a great number. I will try cultivating as quickly as possible while enjoying the time that we have. Well, I will set my target to Rank 5 G.o.d for this. I think I will be able to fend myself off with this strength."
Anya stared at him for a few seconds before nodding her head. "Alright. Since that is the case, we will go according to your plan."
